J.P. Morgan Private Bank "Outlook 2020"

At DRUM Agency, I helped in the conceptualization, design, and creation of J.P. Morgan Private Bank's "Outlook 2020" event. Through collaboration across creative and marketing teams, we were able to create an engaging and memorable experience for attendees. The project went above and beyond the typical Outlook efforts by unifying all relevant materials into a consistent, print, digital, and in-person experience with a unique theme that ties all aspects of the campaign together.

J.P. Morgan Private Bank, a leading financial institution catering to ultra-high-net-worth clients, sought to redefine its annual "Outlook" event for 2020. With a desire to create a standout experience that would captivate its discerning clientele, the bank partnered with DRUM Agency to conceptualize and execute a cutting-edge event that would transcend traditional investment projections.

Our Challenge + Concepting

This event faced the challenge of standing out in a landscape saturated with similar investment projections and forecasts. The client aimed to deliver an immersive, durable experience that would resonate across multiple platforms and leave a lasting impression on its sophisticated audience.

We spearheaded the conceptualization and design of the "Outlook 2020" event, leveraging collaboration across creative and marketing teams to develop a distinctive and cohesive experience. The winning concept, "Focus," centered around engaging themes of vision and clarity. This approach allowed for the creation of unexpected imagery and animations that manipulated perspective to dazzling effect.
